This Christmas is going to be pretty interesting for everyone with a whole slew of new products in every tech segment. Of particular interest in this blog update is the state of USB 3.0 on new generation motherboards on the horizon. Is Intel even interested in USB 3.0? Judging by new P67 and H67 boards pictured, perhaps not as much as we hoped.

Those of us a little older will remember the confusing days of multiple cables and ports, but thanks to USB - the one port to rule them all - the world of computer connectivity is a lot easier these days.
